The Property
Pushing open the oak front door we step into the entrance porch of Grove Cottage where the standard of finish that flows throughout this charming home is instantly apparent. Doors to either side of the hall open to our two reception rooms and stairs rise to the first floor. To our left we step into the sitting room where the seamless mix of space and character make for the perfect family space, the feature fire place provides a charming focal point to the room whilst a window enjoys the view over the front gardens. Stepping across the hall we find our dining room which mirrors the sitting room in dimensions. A window looks onto the rear gardens whilst a door opens to a vast under stairs cupboard which is complemented by the original brick flooring. A feature fireplace again provides a cozy focal point to this generous room. From here we open the glazed door to the most impressive kitchen dining room. The kitchen boasts a range of modern units set over a contrasting timber effect floor. A double oven and induction hob are found integrated whilst space is made for our dish washer and free standing fridge freezer. A stainless steel sink is set below the window which over looks our rear garden and floods the room with natural light. Ample space is made for a family dining table ideal for informal dining and modern family life. From here we flow open plan to the generous utility room which offers a range of matching units complemented by a butler sink set below the window. An oak stable door opens to the rear gardens whilst internally a door opens to the contemporary ground floor shower room. Climbing the stairs to the first floor landing we find doors opening to all of the first floor rooms. At the front of the property we find the master and guest bedrooms. Both generous double rooms boast built in storage and the original cast iron feature fire places. The master over looks the front of the grounds whilst the guest bedroom enjoys a view over the rear. To the rear of the property we find our third double room again enjoying a view of the rear gardens and boasting an original fire place. Stepping over the landing we pass the family bathroom where the high standard of finish found throughout the property continues. A modern white suite boasts a bath with mains shower and screen fitted over, a wash hand basin is set in a vanity unit and a low level w/c is in place. A practical tiled floor complements this modern space. At the head of the landing we find our fourth bedroom which enjoys a view over the front gardens and completes the accommodation.
Outside
From the highway we enter the property passing the original red brick wall which forms our front boundary. A drive way leads to a five bar gate which opens to the generous parking area both of which have been freshly laid to shingle which perfectly complements the rendered finish of the cottage. A path leads from here to the front door of the property and in turn extends to both sides giving access to the rear gardens. The front garden is enclosed by a red brick wall and a range of established bushes. An apple tree provides a focal point to the front garden. At the rear the boundaries are formed by established shrubs to all sides which enclose this generous space. A storage shed is in situ, and the original brick wood and coal shed is in place. The gardens have been cleared and will require laying to seed or turf when the seasons permit.
Location
The property itself is within walking distance of the park, primary school, village green, convenience store, public house and Broome Heath, ideal for those who enjoy walking and getting back to nature. The house also falls into the Hobart High School catchment area. Bungay lies under a mile away within the popular Waveney Valley and offers a good range of all the necessary amenities and shops, schools, antique shops, restaurants, The Fisher Theatre (now showing films too) and leisure facilities including indoor swimming pool and golf club. The unspoilt heritage coastline of Suffolk with the lovely beaches of Southwold and Walberswick are a short distance away.
